Addicted to Her Curves
Chapter Three
Connie paid for her gym membership and enjoyed the short tour. The woman, Chloe, she believed her name was, didn’t have a lot of time and she promised she’d come back to her if she needed more than a basic tour. Besides, everything was signposted so it wasn’t like she didn’t know where she was going. Everything was all displayed well.
After changing into her swimsuit, she pulled her hair up onto her head and took a quick shower as was required.
She didn’t know why she’d decided to join Scott’s gym. All night, she’d been thinking about the two men. Scott and Beau. Beau and Scott. Just thinking their names was enough to make her heart race. All three of them were completely different people. It was crazy for her to even think there was ever going to be anything between them, but late at night, watching the sky from her bedroom, the moon in its full glory, she couldn’t help but hope for a chance. The opportunity to know what it was like to belong to both men.
Picking between them wasn’t an option.
Once she showered, she made her way out to the pool area. It wasn’t overly busy. She’d decided to join quite late in the afternoon after taking a delivery in her bar. No one was around and she didn’t feel like enjoying the last of the fair.
Beau had been busy at the mechanic shop and she knew because she’d stopped by. With tourists in the area, he had to be available to them at a moment’s notice in case of breakdowns, and a lot of them had happened this year alone. He was swamped. He’d wanted to stop but she saw the pressure he was under and refused to be part of the problem and had left him to deal. He probably was annoyed with that, but the next stop had been the gym.
Scott was in training, but she hadn’t asked for him. He’d told her his schedule plenty of times and she knew he was one of the most sought-after trainers in the whole gym.
Grabbing hold of the ladder, she climbed into the pool. She hadn’t been for a swim in what felt like a lifetime.
In her childish mind, whenever she went to the pool, she would always imagine a great white shark chasing her. She’d pretend to be fighting it off. It was crazy how some of her memories returned. Today, she settled on a simple breaststroke and didn’t think of sharks in the pool. She’d done a couple of laps and was resting at the edge of the pool when she caught sight of a pair of sneakers.
Looking up, she recognized the sweatpants, and finally the man himself, Scott. All of his muscular chest was on display, and she nibbled on her lip as she looked at him. There was no doubt this man was a catch, but so was Beau. Both of them had a sexual magnetism she couldn’t deny.
“Hello, you,” he said.
“Hey.”
“If I knew you were interested in joining the gym, I’d have given you a discount.”
“Do you give that to all first-timers?”
“Only in the New Year, but as my woman, I’d have given you free rein.”
“I don’t mind paying.”
“And now I have to wonder what else you have paid for?” he asked.
“Huh?” She didn’t do well with this flirting. It was way out of her comfort zone and with every passing second, she proved it.
He chuckled. “Did you book any classes with a trainer?”
“Oh, no, hell, no. I only came here to check it out, you know, maybe have a swim. That’s about it.” She shrugged. “I happen to know this really great guy and he’s been telling me about this place for a long time. I figured I should check it out. You’ve got a great pool.”
“It’s the best.”
“It certainly is.” She glanced around her. In the few laps she’d taken, the pool had emptied.
“We’re near closing time.”
“Oh, shit, you are?” She quickly lifted herself out of the pool and stood. In only a swimsuit, she realized how naked she really was.
“Chloe told me we had a new member and she didn’t know where you went. She hadn’t given you the tour.”
“I’m so sorry.”
“You don’t have to apologize. You never do for me.” He reached out and stroked her arm. Just from that one touch, she felt on fire. “Would you like the tour?”
“If you want. I’ll have to change first.”
“No need to. I’m the boss. I’ve got all the keys, and I’ll bring you back.”
“I’ll get water everywhere.”
“I don’t mind. Come on.” He took her hand and she glanced down at his pants. Before he had a chance to move away, she caught sight of his erection. He was hard.
Now she was starting to sound like a teenage girl even in her own head.
